Drowned in Deception: The Brutal Murder of Rita Fleming

When police were called to a quiet West London flat in June 2024, they found 70-year-old Rita Fleming dead in her bathtub — fully clothed. Her partner, Clifford Cowen, insisted it was a tragic accident. But something about the scene didn’t add up. In this episode of Seeing Red, we uncover the disturbing truth behind what really happened in that flat — a story of control, cruelty, and the lengths one man went to hide the evidence of what he’d done.
